Details for Farmer Palmers Farm Park

Situated near Poole in the lovely county of Dorset and open every day is Falmer Palmer's Farm Park. Here there are lots of activities for youngsters to enjoy and loads of animals to see and get up real close to.

Take a tractor ride as part of our Deer Safari and experience feeding some of our red deer herd. Come and see our little pigs racing and try to pick out the winner. The pig race doesn't take place if it is raining but there are lots of indoor attractions to explore should that be the case. We have guinea pigs and milking cows to see and stroke and lots of chances for children to gain knowledge of the animals by hands on experience. As well as the pigs, deer and cows we have a variety of species living here including ponies who love to be groomed by children, sheep and lambs which can be bottle fed by visitors and our friendly alpacas.

A milking demonstration takes place every day where children can learn about the production of milk. Take a stroll on the tranquil woodland walk past the duck pond and along the side of the river, then return to the main part of the farm and let the kids burn off some energy on one of our bouncy castles. There is a great interactive water play area which the children will love as well as an outside sand play area complete with swings, see saws and climbing frames. We also have a Wendy House area with child size houses for the youngsters to explore and play house in. During the summer explore the maize maze and see if you can find the centre without getting lost.
